I have equipment for building, primers, thinner, everything, except actual painting equipment. There's a store nearby that sells Tamiya spray cans although they're expensive and all, and the local spray cans are thick and meant for walls instead of plastic. Would invest into an airbrush but I don't have the budget, plus I suck at operating these things.Using an airbrush definitely takes time and practice - need to get the mixture and thickness of the paint just right so it doesn't clog up the brush or come out too watery when you apply it.
I've painted 3 - 2 HG and 1 MG - kits with an airbrush and they came out okay. I still need a lot of practice with it though before attempting again.

Handpainting, I've tried on many models, but I just don't know how to get the paint and all that right(Hence why my HG Ahead model looks...dead).Handpainting helps a lot with smaller details.

But you're going to need very steady hands, patience, and a fine paint brush if you're going to do that.

Two hours in and I'm done with the Core Fighter II for the RG Zephyranthes

......."That's not to say that the Night Lords aren't pants shittingly terrifying. They know what they're good at, hit and run terrorist attacks, and they stick to it. They've had enough common sense to survive for so long despite having so many disadvantages compared to the other eight legions, so they're probably the most sensible bunch. Of course this is relative to chaos so by sensible we mean "will hang you with your small intestine to cause fear in the enemy" rather than "completely ignore the enemy army to attack a strategically worthless town to make sacrifices for the dark gods." It helps that their attacks are so low-key (except for the bombing a planet one) that the Night Lords are not actively hunted by the Imperium. Otherwise they'd likely be wiped out in short order."
